@VictoriaKwakwa @JUNAIDWBG @WorldBank I'm proud of how our teams in infrastructure collaborate with experts across the @WorldBank and look forward to more opportunities to enhance our work together.
@VictoriaKwakwa @JUNAIDWBG In particular, we discussed how transport underscores the @WorldBank's efforts to create livable cities, promote food security, encourage more financing partners to get involved, and to advance gender equality.
Looking ahead, we will build on this momentum, ramping up @WorldBank financing for #RoadSafety to at least $1 billion annually. Together with partners like the Bangladesh Road Safety Project, we can make significant strides towards safer roads and communities.
Improving road safety is a critical development priority, with 1.2 million lives lost globally each year. The Bangladesh Road Safety Project demonstrates how comprehensive, multisectoral approaches can drive real impact.

Very important points from @WBG_Transport We @EASSTransport agree. Mobility poverty is too often ignored.
It's 2024 & the world faces such stark gaps in #transport access: 🛣️1 bn people live more than 2 km away from an all-weather #road 👩🏾🦰1 in 6 women don't job search out of fear of harassment on transit 🚑 Road crashes claim over 1M lives yearly wrld.bg/yPby50QTtPH

Delighted to host a productive bilateral meeting with @AECID_es. We discussed deepening our partnership on key priorities like transport, urban development, digital development, and infrastructure finance, including the Global Infrastructure Facility.
Started the day at #WBGMeetings with a dialogue on the #MiddleCorridor alongside @WorldBank VP for Infrastructure @GuangzheChen, focused on how to maximize the route’s potential to improve trade resilience across the region.
@noradno In addition, we look forward to exploring how #Norway can assist the Global Infrastructure Facility, which helps develop bankable infrastructure projects for #privatesectorfinancing.
Fantastic meeting w/ Bård Vegar Solhjell (Director General, @noradno). We are grateful for the support provided by #Norway to ESMAP's work on #energy access, the clean cooking fund, #gender, #hydropower, #digitaldevelopment, & #ID4D.
